E3 day 1 update

[Acehigh]

I think I caught all the major announcments on the first day.  The rest of the week has basically been all of the companies showing off software.  And most of the software is either sequels or games people have been talking about since last e3.  although I have to give props to microsoft and co as the greater majority of titles they are showcasing for the 360 have no numbers after them........that means brand new games and brand new ideas!  Don't get me wrong some of what the big  N and Sony are showing off look impressive but sony is banking on mgs 4 and ff 13, while the big N has Mario Galaxies, Wario Ware next gen, and Red Steel (new title) that they are banking on.  If I see any more earth shattering info I'll make sure I post it here.



*there is some news for us star wars fans and geeks lol.  there is going to be an expansion pack for empire at war coming up soon.  it's called empire at war:  forces of corruption.  the story pics up after yavin IV after the death star blows up.  been having troulbe accessing the lucas arts page with dial up so I don't have all the info.  but I do know this.  there is going to be a new pirate faction called "the underground".  new units include the SSD, b-wings, a new pirate cap ship, star vipers, "playable heroes" luke and yoda, I swear I saw clones and ep 2-3 content, and I swear I saw an eclipse class star destroyer during the e3 vid presentation.  they didn't talk alot about it but I have seen most of these units on the screen shots or the vid presentation on e3.  more info when I get it!*
